Now it came to pass that after the end of Korihor,
Alma having received tidings
that the Zoramites were perverting the ways of the Lord,

to bow down to dumb idols,
his heart again began to sicken because of the iniquity of the people.
Alma 34:36
And this I know, because the Lord hath said
he dwelleth not in unholy temples,
but in the hearts of the righteous doth he dwell;
yea, and he has also said
that the righteous shall sit down in his kingdom, to go no more out;
but their garments should be made white through the blood of the Lamb.
Alma 35:15
Now Alma, being grieved for the iniquity of his people,
yea for the wars, and the bloodsheds, and the contentions which were among them;
and having been to declare the word, or sent to declare the word,
among all the people in every city;
and seeing that the hearts of the people began to wax hard,
and that they began to be offended because of the strictness of the word,
his heart was exceedingly sorrowful.
